The upload featured Naomi in black shorts, a matching colored crop top, and shoes paired with a red jacket while her boyfriend donned lighter colored pants and shoes.

The couple appeared to be all over each other, and the Japanese-American looked thrilled to have her prince charming snooping around her ears. The caption read:

"Very grateful you're in my life, always learning from you, always inspired by you. Also always VERY entertained by you, lol. Love ya, kid."

Her fans couldn't help but notice this gesture, and they featured admirable words in the comment section. The 21-year-old is not alone on this journey of love. Her prince charming, YBN seems to have found his princess too.

In an interview, the rapper acknowledged dating the sportswoman. He stated that his lover influenced his choice of sports and that before they began dating, he was not a fan of tennis sports.

The pair's first meeting was in the course of a Los Angeles Clippers game, and ever since then, they have been inseparable.

Although the entertainer said that their relationship had been ongoing months before the knowledge of the media, they made a conscious effort to keep it private.

It came as no surprise when the soon to be 22-year-old posted her man as her inspiration. The rap star explained that he aids his woman to give her best. Naomi also appreciates YBN's craft, and she established that his "Lost Boy" album is one of her favorite music to listen to.

Apart from being a smooth lover, the prominent tennis player for both the US Open and Australian Open is a very competent player who takes her craft seriously.

After her victory against Serena Williams (an all-time champ) in the game in the US Open last year, the young player became a force to reckon with. Being the first-ever Japanese to win a Grand title is no joke. It was due to the drilling she got from her Haitian dad, who wasn't accepted by her mother's family.

Although her parents' love stood the test of time, Naomi and her sister had to take on her mother's name "Osaka" to help with convenient living in the city of Japan.

The 21-year-old admitted she isn't the emotional type and only "started crying a bit" on one occasion when she noticed her mother's presence at a game. It is evident the tennis champ is enjoying her youth and has her career and love life in order. No wonder she is proud to share it with the world!
